Reviews for "Giga Miner"

Incomplete

It's a nice way to pass time, but that's it right now. A little finger math will tell you that it's more efficient to just to buy health back at the first town every time instead of buying potions or buying health in other towns. If there were travel costs, that would be different, but you skipped out on that.

The money trap is horrible, especially since the NPCs advise to waste money upgrading the house. If there were a condition that kept track of the available mine spaces left, you could have had an ending. Without it, most players just sat there with nothing to do, so it feels like an incomplete game. Or, you could have made the mines grow back slowly. We could restart and do it the correct way, but it feels like such a waste of time, especially since walking and mining are so slow.

good idea, needs work...possible follow up?

i think that i possibly blew up the blue rare gem with the dynamite and no choice but to restart the game. makes the game to slow and long when u constantly have to redo it all!! i think with a couple more tweaks and some more varieing upgrades this could be a good one

This game is legit

I know the reviews are mixed. You can play this game for hours and there are many upgrades along the way. It is actually very fun and addicting once you get involved. The complaints about it being too linear are also legit. I see some of that in the game play. Overall it is a good time waster but might not be your cup of tea.

Needs work

My main complaint about this game would be that the miner moves too slow. Getting from point A to point B is a pain in the arse. Navigating the mines is even worse.

He doesn't need to be a track star, mind you, but anything would be better.

The upgrades are nice. Everybody likes upgrades.

Maybe I missed something but, after Greenland, i found myself out of money and unable to buy the silver helmet and continue.

All in all, it was an okay game but the fact that I was able to get stuck with no choice but to start over was the final straw.

cured my insomnia

That will get you a 5. Nighty night.
